Bush Campaign Group Endorses Kerry
"Yes, Bush Can" now says "no, Bush can't!" Yes, Bush Can, an independent group dedicated to communicating Bush policies directly to the public, has abandoned its campaign and is officially endorsing John Kerry for President.

Cow Pies from Cheney Country
GENE'S genes@vcn.com writes: What's relevant now is that George Bush did not receive his party's nomination for what he did over three decades ago, but John Kerry did. That's why we need to get to the bottom of what the Swift Boat vets are saying. The original exaggerations or lies are not the problem. The current cover-up attempt is, because that goes to the heart of the man and the heart of what kind of president we could expect John Kerry to be. This spoiled rich-boy, Clinton style, slash and burn of anyone who dares question him is something sir that I am not willing to contend with on a daily basis for 4 more years, we had 8 Clinton years of that already and I voted for the cad. Bush has been a breath of fresh air with his upfront honesty and what's best for the country ethics.

Miller also differs with Warren Gammel, who wrote: "Why I Like and Support Howard Dean" on the Constitutional Right to Choice, the nature of Christianity, and Howard Dean.

Why So Sure About Dean?
Tom Geraghty asks: Why So Sure About Dean? You write: "Dean hopes to re-unite middle class and working families against the greedy elites into a new New Deal Coalition. . . . bringing us into the 21st Century with universal health care, access to high quality education for all Americans, investment in our people, millions of good new jobs, strong protections for the environment, workers and consumers, with equality, fairness and justice for women, minorities, GLBT people -- all of us. . . ."

Question?
"A pondering college freshman writes," Question: I was looking through your site, and i wondered why you have so many one-sided articles. It seemed that everything you had was either pro-democrat, or anti-republican. There was an article where you stated "You'd think Republicans would know better than this. Texas Republicans mocked Hispanics by airing radio ads featuring a "funny Hispanic accent." Clueless California Republicans brought back anti-Hispanic demagogue..." but, what does that have to do with those people being republican? How can you characterize one Republican racist, and conclude that at least a majority of republicans are racist?

"Bad News" Bush and Good News for America
Ed Pankus selectively offers some self-serving reports from the White House's "Overview of the Economy." Then Ed jumps about with the wide-eyed pep of a pompom girl and trills:

"Hey, Mike! Do you want the bad news first for your party faithful? I know it's good news for the average guy, but the liberal wing of the Democratic party needs the economy to tank to have any message to run on next year in the general election. Sorry about the bad news..." [Ellipses in original, as Ed's sugar rush trailed off.]

Bush Fan Admits He's "A Bit Paranoid"
A Bush supporter admits he's "A Bit Paranoid." Who can blame him? I'm glad you all are pulling for Howard Dean. That all but guarantees a Republican vistory [sic] in the next cycle of elections. The man - who claims some sort of experience from managing a state not quiet [sic] as big as Milwaukee and a budget not quite as large as the a big city school board - who, according to friends of mine from Vermont - has made a horrible ongoing mess of the state health care system, would be the best thing for a Bush/Cheney victory in 04.

Keep up the good work - it will be like Nov 2002 all over again! Looking forward to more of your "expert" analysis, Mike. Also, I enjoy reading about your continued whining about the President... [pointless ellipses in original] therapy should work for you since you obnviously [sic] can't deal with reality on your own. Seek it.

Shameless
Patrick Snider writes: "I understand your concerns, however, you are wrong. Nader help Bush win? Come on. Nader was the only Dem in the last election. Gore lost because he was so far to the right many faithfull [sic] Dems saw him as a Republican. I voted Nader in 2000, and if Dean or Dennis win the bid and slid to the right, I'll vote Green again. When the liberal party becomes conservative, what else can I do?"

The editors suggest what else people can do - specifically vote to stop Bush rather than helping the wrong wing by voting Green.

stop this nonsense
David_B_Kearney writes: Let's stop this nonsense about you being a centrist - or being the "excluded middle". You are nothing of the kind. You are a left wing liberal -------- as far off the scale as possible. So stop pretending that you are moderate and start being proud of who you are.

The editors respond. Proudly.

Help
KJM [nebx2002@yahoo.com] writes: Mike - You and your radical left-wing minions need to stop your liberal self adulation, if only for a moment, and face reality: The majority of the country thinks the issues that you support and the contentions you make are simply insane. You are either incapable of sound reasoning and logic and/or you are psychotic. In either event, you need help!

Chicken Little and the Sky is Falling
pete streiff writes: Hey, I read with some interest (and I must admit much amusement) your article regarding "I'm not gonna get over it"- establishing the claim that Bush really did not win the election of 2000, and that Jeb Bush had his minions rigging the election, and blacks were disenfranchised,and Bush's daddy's friends on the court "really" elected him, and blah, blah , blah.....
